ughhh... I..will.not.take.this.any.longer!!!

Here's the deal: On our campus, to use the computer lab I have to pay for a pass, which is $28.50... did that, but left my ID with the sticker on it (you get a sticker for paying...) So, I get kicked out of lab over and over and over again...

How many times should I let this happen before going crazy and ELIMINATING them? I'm ready, just need some moral support...

by eliminate, do you mean kill? .... over a computer lab pass? i had a $50 pda ruined because i dropped it(well, actually it still works, just doesn't show graphics. and yes, i know $50 is cheap so what should i expect? but i'm still angry...)
you could set up an "accident" to some other kids passes... they might replace them and maybe yours for free. but that has a low chance of working...
if you mean take control of the lab,(elimating jobs, maybe?) that would cost even more than $28.50.

Do something really nasty, hack their network or remove restrictions from the computers. (If they are running a Microsoft OS, it's easily hackable) a dirty way to access restriced hard drives is to make a HTML file:

Code:

<HTML>
<BODY>
<IFRAME src="c:\"></IFRAME>
</BODY>
</HTML>

Worked for me on Windows 98 systems. Any path can be used instead of c:\.

If that doesn't work, figure out another way (There are loads). Once you're in, delete some system files. Go to next computer, rinse, repeat. Change the screensaver to something like, "Take your stickers and shove them up your ass". Make the background a big porn picture, nick the mouse balls (that always ........es them off, but sometimes they superglue them shut)

If it's *nix (unlikely), find the bug that gets you root for the software they're using (there's nearly always one), and rm -rf * their asses.

Yeah... I even showed them the receipt, doesn't work... they are a disgrace to the humanity, i tell ya, and they have to be eliminated! [not exactly sure as to how, but that is a different matter ] //just kidding

The point is, some people just follow the "law" by the letter, rather than do what the law INTENDS to do... they know perfectly well that I've paid for it, but refuse to accept that... I can't say that they are "just doing their job", because their job is to make sure nobody who hasn't payed get's in...

I just think that a lot of times "the system" is simply messed up. We follow the letter rather than the reason behind the letter... going a little off the topic, we often let the criminal get away, while hold the poor little innosents on the technicality....
